When Life Feels Too Heavy: Discovering Those Tiny ‘Glimmers’ of Relief with Julie Bjelland, LMFT

I focus on the concept of “glimmers”—those fleeting, positive moments that provide hope when life feels overwhelming. As someone who identifies as highly sensitive and neurodivergent, I share personal stories of grief, self-reflection, and the practical ways I train my brain to notice and savor moments of joy or relief. You’ll learn how cultivating glimmers can help regulate the nervous system, ease anxiety, and create anchors of stability and hope during challenging times.
